XLPE / UHMW Hose: Superior Performance for Demanding Applications

This high-performance hose combines the benefits of Cross-Linked Polyethylene (XLPE) and Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE) to deliver exceptional durability, flexibility, and chemical resistance. Ideal for a wide range of industries and applications, this hose is engineered to withstand harsh conditions and deliver reliable performance.

Key Features & Benefits:

• Exceptional Abrasion Resistance: The UHMWPE inner layer provides superior protection against abrasion and wear, extending the hose's lifespan significantly, even in demanding applications with abrasive materials. This results in reduced maintenance and replacement costs.
• Excellent Chemical Resistance: Both XLPE and UHMWPE offer excellent resistance to a wide range of chemicals, acids, and bases. This makes the hose suitable for handling a variety of fluids without degradation or leaching. (Specific chemical compatibility chart available upon request)
• High Flexibility & Lightweight Design: Despite its robust construction, the hose maintains excellent flexibility, allowing for easy handling and maneuverability. Its lightweight design reduces strain on operators and simplifies installation.
• Superior Impact Resistance: The combined materials provide superior impact resistance, protecting against damage from accidental impacts and drops. This ensures reliable performance even in challenging environments.
• Excellent UV Resistance: The hose is formulated to resist the damaging effects of ultraviolet (UV) radiation, maintaining its integrity and performance even under prolonged exposure to sunlight.
• Smooth Inner Bore: The smooth inner bore minimizes friction, reducing pressure drop and improving flow efficiency. This is particularly beneficial for applications involving high-viscosity fluids.
• Wide Temperature Range: The hose is designed to operate effectively across a wide temperature range, ensuring reliable performance in various climatic conditions. (Specific temperature range will vary depending on hose diameter and reinforcement; consult specifications sheet)
